BURGER IT!
Games-—X has just received news that
Virgin is to publish a game from the
States on Nintendo, based on Ronald
McDonald, Hamburglar and the crew.
News of the game has been printed
on some 3,000,000 ‘Happy Meal’ boxes,
so chances are you'll be able to read
more about it if you frequent the
aforementioned fast food establishment.
We understand this is a platform
based romp and the scenario has
Ronald chasing that varmint Hamburglar
with a view to bringing the crook to
justice in a vat of barbecue dip.
If McDonalds is the first in a series
of tie-ins with high street
establishments, what next -— a game
based on Ratners that costs less than a
M &S prawn sandwich and lasts for fiv
minutes? McDonalds is likely to hit th
streets in the early part of next year.

EMPEROR
mperor is the fourth in the successful
KOEI war-game series, published by
Infogrames. It embodies Corsica’s famous son
Emperor Napoleon Boneparte, diminutive in
stature but gigantic in reputation. :
In Emperor you relive Napoleon’s destiny
from the early days when the little corporal
rose through the ranks to excel in the battle of
the seige at Toulon, right through to the battle
of Waterloo.
This all-encompassing game puts you in
charge of battle planning and strategy. You
command the cavalry, artillery and infantry and
take actual physical control over the canons.
You can just imagine ol’ Boney getting off
his horse and pushing the cannon men out of
the way with the words, “non like zees,
imbeciles!”

THUNDER BURNER
hunder Burner has been given a deadly mission: to
T destroy the hidden enemy base. To find it he must
follow certain energy spheres and come into contact with
them in order to recharge his strength.
Thunder Burner is a transformable robot. In order to
avoid obstacles in his way and destroy enemies he can
use his ultra sophisticated capacities as a robot or
suddenly take to the skies in the shape of a perfectly
equipped plane!
Thunder Burner features 12 different levels and players
will find themselves in all sorts of locations: forests,
deserts and even the oceans.
Available at the end of October, Thunder Burner will be
released on the ST, Amiga, PC and Amstrad CPC.

Here's our youngest hero, ready and
willing to bash his way to victory. No
one will dare to mess with the chap in
the red skullcap...
On the land levels, you have to do battle with all manner of fluffy creatures who,
despite all attempts, just can't keep their balance

critters these, but one swipe will soon see them off

12 GAMES-X 31ST OCTOBER-6TH NOVEMBER 1991
“3 These aren’t your everyday twins.
These are super-duper Mega Twins,
brothers with attitude. So sit back
for yet another scrolling hack’em-to-death
platform game. Revenge is on your mind and, by
jimminy, you're going to have it.
ou'll have heard it all before. A
Y land stuck in the quagmire of
peace, everything is hunky-
dory, and then the big nasty strikes. It’s
always the big nasty. Everything is
ruined, the kingdom is pillaged and the
royal family is wiped out.
As per usual there are survivors, in
this case two; the twin sons of the king.
15 years later these youngsters,
brought up on a diet of vengeance,
set out to rid their land of the
scourge hanging over it.
Mega Twins can only be
described as a cuddly platform Le /
beat’em-up. Based on_ the
splendid coin-op of the same
name, basically you'll have to
jump aimlessly around,
collecting items, beating the
living daylights out of the baddies, and
smiling when playing it.
Initially, you are asked which area
of the Mega Twins world you wish to
travel through, whether it be land, air or
sea. These early levels can be tackled in
any order and, as you can imagine, each
of these present their own problems of
movement. You have to collect a snorkel
to travel underwater and a winged
helmet to succeed in the air. On land you
simply need your wits and great skill to
avoid nasty landings.
OL’ BLUE EYES
Each of the initial three levels contain
their own selection of enemies as
well as some people, gods or
things to help you in your

ea ‘estore the kingdom of
Alurea to its former glory.
It's worth noting down what is
actually said, although it may
seem. obvious later, simply
because it builds up the sense of a
massive game.
The atmosphere increases
significantly when the choice of level is
no longer yours to make, and you are
thrust into the troublesome fourth and

you'll be
gasping for
air the
moment
you paddle
past

can feel a_ tangible
sense of success,
tight up to the
moment when you
run out of lives.
| The enemies are
a real bizarre bunch and it
really does take some time to
understand their weak spots.
Some can be sliced neatly in two
while others require quite a bit of
constant sword action. This can be
particularly frustrating when you're are
losing valuable energy at the same time.
If you survive the bigger nasties’
onslaughts, you will then have to
face one of ithe particularly
horrible end-of-level guardians.
Surprisingly, these don't
always look that bad, but believe
me, they are tough to destroy,
especially when they fight back.
PRESSIES GALORE
On your travels as one or both of the
Mega Twins, you'll find all manner of
essential goodies. These vary from
health regeneration through to pots of
gold. Actually, the baddies transform
into a coin or two every time you
manage to kill them, so you should
never have money problems.
Control is simple, basic joystick
actions manoeuvre your heroes,
together with fire for your sword’s
parries and thrusts. You can also earn
and collect special weapons and
Eiptions to help you on your
‘ quests. These vary from handy
bombs through to typhoons and
other handy goodies.
As a game this is a joy to
behold. It is easy to get to
“grips with and also splendid
to look at. It is a great platform
product to hack around and with
which you can generally enjoy yourself.
Well worth a look.

Overall, Mega Twins is one
“= heck of an enjoyable game.
Amiga js pure platform fun with a
cutesy set of characters and a nice
unraveling story-line as you progress.
It's rare to find a game which
incorporates a two-player option and
decent gameplay. Mega Twins succeeds
well on both fronts, either challenging
as the eldest twin on a lone quest, or
hacking through the game with a friend.
The soundtrack is your expected
upbeat jingle jangles which, together
with the variety of sound effects,
ensures you won't feel the meed to
frequently turn off the speakers.
Graphically it is rather impressive.
Smooth scrolling and sprite movement
_ against a dazzlingly bright backdrop it
I) looks extremely good. Even the twins
l= determined expressions are depicted
well in a cartoonesque style. One minor
bs quibble is that on certain levels you are
restricted to what's on screen.
Nevertheless, Mega Twins does
impart a rather special atmosphere
allowing you to get more and more
engrossed in the game as you progress.
It is tough initially, Out it is well
worth persevering with. If you hate
platforms games, don’t bother but if
youve had the slightest inkling of
admiration, you'll love it.
PRICE TBA OUT NOVEMBER
The ST version has the same
: glitzy, cutesy graphics and
Atari ST story-line as the Amiga
version. However, the quality of
scrolling is a stage behind that of the
Amiga. Obviously in the sonics
department you can expect a significant
difference in music quality.
PRICE TBA OUT NOVEMBER

On C64 expect chunky sprites with a
decent soundtrack. Scrollingwise, it
stands favourably to other 64 games.
The Amstrad version has bright,
colourful graphics with acceptable
scrolling quality, not perfect but a good
conversion. Expect simple coloured
twins and enemies — worth a gander.

' Mercenary
| is one of
- those
games that just about
everyone has either
‘seen or played. Boot
up Mercenary Iii and
you'll have few .
surprises. This game,
however, is
significantly different
as well as being a
great improvement on
the original.
he original Mercenary was
quite a landmark for its time.
Based in a world of wire
framed reality, it introduced bizarre
landscapes to travel through in an
adventurous task.
After many years waiting for the
promised follow-up, Damocles was
finally released. With a new
programming engine and a clever little
planetary control, you could travel
around more to complete your quest,
namely to save the world from the
Damocles comet.
You are now a heroic figure after
success in your tasks. Unfortunately you
are stuck in a ‘time warp’ prison. If you
ever played Damocles you'll understand
that this was a nasty trick on behalf of
the programmers, where you were held
in captivity until Mercenary III.
When released you have two people
to visit, either the solicitor, demanding
his pound of flesh, or an enigmatic
sounding Mr PC Bil.
All routes to winning through in the

end are via Mr Bil in this game, so you
might as well make an early start.
You begin with the bare minimum of
equipment and no flying craft. Of course
you have a whopping 50 million credits
for saving the planet, but that ain’t
initially of much use to you. Resign
yourself to the public transport system, a
real gem.
The bus service runs to a timetable
on a specific route, so you may have to
do a spot of waiting. (What’s new!) The
taxi drivers run the real scams. Like the
real thing, honest drivers do exist, but if
you’re unlucky you'll be taken for a ride
all over the place and you'll soon see
your cosy 50 million disappear down
the plug hole.
ON THE BUSES
There is far more character interaction
in the Dion Conspiracy than in any
other Mercenary. The storyline is
therefore a good deal easier to get to

Bil for what he is as you set off on your
desired path to complete the game.
The game has six varying solutions,
five of which are pretty obvious if you get
stuck in. They are all concerned with
halting PC Bils mining exploits and vary
from destroying his equipment and
pankrupting him, through to pushing
yourself forward for the presidency.

Fighting isn’t such a major factor,
but if you are that way inclined the game
does offer a death or glory solution.

Mercenary Ill the Dion
| Conspiracy is by far the best
. game in the classic series.
The gameplay is vastly improved
because you aren’t dumped in the
middle of nowhere without a clue of
what you're supposed to do.
Here you can open up the
characters to glean vital clues to
complete the game. Graphically, it does
however look a trifle dated.
The wire framed graphics have
been filied in and the scrolling on the
planetary level is smooth, although a
tad jerky in places.
The actual movement of the
planets, moons and enemy space craft
do scroll smoothly, although they can
sometimes slow the game down when
they fill the page.
Sounds are no improvement on the
original Mercenary but, strangely
enough, this doesn’t affect the
gameplay in any significant way despite
the various pips and bleeps sometimes
grating on your nerves.
Dealing with the myriad of
characters and solving the problems is
too easy for the ardent adventurer, but
you do have six options for success.
You don’t actually communicate
directly with the characters, but trigger
off a set response, making you feel as
useful as a tailor's dummy.
At least you can glean some
valuable clues for your travels. In any
case, a bit of idle chit-chat never did
anyone any harm.
It’s hard to comment objectively on
a game which will have people either
loving or hating it. If you have the
slightest inkling of admiration for
Damocles, you should enjoy it. It’s
definitely worth a look if nothing else.

The Amiga version is
identical to the ST version. If
you placed both side by
side, you would be certainly pushed to
find any difference. ;
Being developed on the ST
certainly adds to this fine line, but
graphically and sonically the difference
is minimal.
There is the slightest change in the
colours between versions, but even
these are almost unnoticeable.

rogressing through Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong
Il and Donkey Kong Jnr, our Italian heroes
eventually managed to gain the recognition they
so rightfully deserved. Now the boys are household
names, Mario Mania has hit town!
Like those other cult superstars the Teenage
Mutant Hero Turtles and the Simpsons, the Mario
Brothers have appeared in their own cartoon series.
What's more, Mario and Luigi now appear in their very
own game show. Nick Clarkson visited the Carlton
Television Studios to discover just what was going on.
The Super Mario Challenge is the brain child of
Robb Hart, the chap who was responsible for the Dennis
the Menace TV programme. Having visited a computer
show and seen the enthusiasm for the Mario Brothers,
Robb began working on ideas for the show.
The initial suggestion was to have contestants
suspended by wires in a life-size Mario-style game.
Naturally such a show would prove a nightmare to set up
so Robb came up with another idea.
Together with David Harrison, the head of Ad Sales
for the Childrens’ Channel, Robb decided on a formula
which would include contestants actually playing the
Super Mario game. David approached Nintendo with a
basic outline of the show. Having received official
backing the project was put into action.
REAL LIVE MARIO!
John Lenahan is an ideal choice for the show's
presenter. John’s an American comedian who began his
British career as a street performer at London's Covent
Garden before moving onto the club circuit. John’s a
self-confessed closet computer freak — an Atari ST
1 wonder whether Nintendo realised quite
what they were doing when they first
introduced two Italian plumbers to the
world? It’s been nearly a decade since the
dynamic duo made their debut in a video
game. Back in the beginning Mario and
Luigi were upstaged by an oversized gorilla
by the name of Donkey Kong. Now the boys
are probably the world’s most loved
computer characters.
owner, he’s a great fan of adventure games, especially
Dungeon Master.
When John saw the advert for a childrens’ show
presenter he wasn’t too keen, it was only when he
noticed the computer link that he decided to Qive it a try.
Prior to the interview he received a crashcourse in Super
Mario Brothers 1 from his nephew. Finally, on the day of
the interview John joined the other hopefuls.
However, instead of dressing in formal clothes John
arrived in white overalls, a red shirt and cap, with his
moustache completing the ensemble. After :
only a few seconds Robb Hart knew John fF
Lenahan was the man for the job. j
The shows are actually

recorded ii
consecutively and up to 15 separate programmes can
be filmed in any day. The show first appeared on The
Childrens’ Channel at the beginning of October and
featured Super Mario Brothers 1.
60 contestants were chosen from Club Nintendo
and now, after 15 knock-out rounds, 30 are left. The

game looks as though it's projected
onto the screen at the back of the
_ Studio. In actual fact the image is
chromakeyed onto the green
background by the crew
in the control room. As you
can see from the show's set
the whole programme is
dedicated to Mario
Brothers. Presenter John
Lenahan looks right at home
in his overalls and even the
kids have a good time
second part of the show now features Super Mario
Brothers 3 which is due out on 2nd November.
Each show is made up of three rounds of play.
Players must first battle against each other to see how
fast they can complete a pre-determined level. The
second round is played against the clock with the
contestants attempting to gain as many points as
possible within a given time.
Finally another timed round challenges the
Mario maniacs to see how many coins they can
collect. In addition to the fevered action John
Lenahan also presents some top tips to help
players progress through the game.
BEHIND THE SCENES
Watching the programme from the comfort of your own
home you could be fooled into believing that producing
such a show is easy. Ah, the magic of television! In

John Lenahan presides over the 30 youngsters while the
not 100 per cent reliable and in the end human talent
was called upon.
The nerve centre of the operation is the control
room. It’s here that Robb Hart, Robin Parsons the
vision mixer, Bob Harvey the director and a
host of others make sense of what’s going
on downstairs. Looking like something out of
Star Trek the control desk is a myriad of
buttons and dials to the layman. However, in
the hands of these experts it’s truly magic.
Combining the pictures being filmed by the cameras
and the actual images from the game is a complex
operation and timing is crucial. Watching the team put
the programme together is an amazing experience.
camera and sound crew go about their business.
Behind the set are Darrell and Keith from
the Nintendo Hotline. It’s their job to set up the
consoles ready for the contestants to play the
different levels. The sight of 10 Nintendo
Entertainments Systems stacked up is quite
daunting but Darrell and Keith seem to cope
admirably. Despite being Mario experts, the two
weren't Robb Hart's first choice.
Initially the NESs were set up by a BBC micro
which had all of Mario’s movements pre-recorded.
Unfortunately, due to technical troubles the system was

set off to find out what some of the contestants thought
of it all. To make sure everyone knew what was
happening they were all given a copy of Super Mario
Brothers 3 a couple of weeks before filming.
Aimen Hassnyeh from London was knocked out of
his round but thought the show was brilliant, even if he
didn’t win. Jordan Ledger won his heat and was looking
forward to the next round.
Meanwhile, Matthew Kidd easily won through,
although he shouldn’t have — he’s had a copy of Super
Mario Brothers 3 for nearly a year and he’s completed it!
The overall winner of the programme will win a trip all
around Denmark; judging from the talents displayed by
the 30 youngsters | certainly wouldn't
rate my chances of coming close.
The Super Mario Challenge is
broadcast on The Children’s
Channel. The latest
rounds will be shown
every weekday from
the 4th November to
the 22nd November.
The programme is
shown first at 12.10
and then repeated
at 17.10.

ercs, for those who didn’t know,
Yd short for Mercenaries. This is
crack team of commandos trained to kill
or be killed. Mercs is also the new game
for the Mega Drive, converted from the
brilliant Capcom coin-op original.
You take on the role of a Merc ona
suicidal mission into enemy territory in
a desperate attempt to rescue the
president of the USA. Although armed
with an array of _ i state-of-the-art
weaponry, you are confronted with all
kinds of hi-tech machinery driven by
psychopathic enemy soldiers,
To go with your ever poiverhn guns
is a limited supply of rocket bombs. One
of these will clear the screen of all foot
soldiers and severely damage any tanks,
planes and so on.
On your way through these levels
you will come across a few very handy
and very empty enemy vehicle and gun
turrets. You can leap into these and
plough headlong into the sea of soldiers.
When ensconced in these you cannot
be injured by bullets. However, your
safety doesn’t last forever. The vehicles
will soon explode, sending you back into
the path of skin damaging bullets.
The arcade version of Mercs has
Been faithfully copied, except the three-
player option which is only to be
expected. It even has the landslides
which were cunningly left out of the
Amiga and ST conversions.
Graphically there are a few glitches
but nothing too severe, and none of it
wrecks the overall appearance in any
way. Soundwise the game is also of top
quality, incorporating many tunes and
realistic blasting effects.
The game plays immensely well and
is every bit as addictive as the arcade
original, something which is very rarely
seen anywhere.
Fans of the arcade will adore this
conversion and anyone who enjoys
mindless violence should check out this
yee ae blast.

Hard Drivin’ is an. excellent
conversion on the Lynx and comes as
close to the arcade original as it could
possibly be. Graphically the game is
superb although a little slow, with the
sound equally good.
However, I did find that it lacked

dull after a few races. On the whole this
is an impressive driving game on the

ce Hockey is the noblest of sports for
the violence monger, with loads of
grown men skating round an ice rink
hitting each other, and occasionally a
puck, with a large stick. The sport has
been attempted many times on
computer, the latest is Hit the Ice.
Basically Ice Hockey is like football
on ice with a bit of added violence. The
aim is to outwit the other team and get
the puck past the goalkeeper more times
than they do to you.
The winner is the team that has
scored the most at the final hooter. If the

death competition where the first team

Hit the Ice is a very violent version of
the sport, with three players on each
team. You control one of the two
attackers’ movements. All hits and
passes are also controlled by you.
When you lose possession you are
allowed to regain it in any way you see
fit. If this means the other player is going
to spin across the ice, then so be it.
Graphically this has taken the
cartoon style and looks very impressive,
humorous and realistic at the same time.
The overall look of the game is of a really

the more worthwhile.

“WE Racer, set to ram other racing
games right off the road. Using state-of-
the-art graphics Top Racer brings you a
fast ’n’ furious track racing game where
you, as a driver of one of the many
saloon cars featured, will have to beat
the fierce competitors to the finish line.
Appearing on the Super Famicom,
Top Racer is being developed by racing
supremo, Gremlin Graphics, which has
had smash hits with classics like Toyota
Rally and Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge.
This offering is loosely based around
the latter of these, and is a one or two-
player game where the drivers compete
against 18 computer controlled cars
across 32 tracks which themselves are
set across eight countries of the world.
The player has a choice of four cars
in which to race. The vehicles will have
different acceleration rates, varying top
Speeds, better or worse handling
capabilities, and each will consume fuel
at differing speeds.
Top Racer will include three levels of
racing difficulty; amateur, normal and
professional. Starting at the easiest

motoring at speeds of over 200 mph!
The tracks are mostly tarmac,
although many of them feature desert
and ice sections. Not only are these
graphically impressive but they also
effect the handling of the car too.
Another feature included is night
racing when your only vision aid is your
headlights. On top of this the track often

changes rapidly from three lanes to as
many as seven.
Obstacles litter the sides of the road
and objects such as rocks, trees and
boards will bring your car to a sudden
halt if rammed.
The road rapidly changes from
surface to surface, one minute grey
tarmac, the next the plain desert, then
under a series of tunnels.
The controls are simple, with button
X operating the accelerator, Y controil-
ing the brake and A igniting one of the
three nitros you are equipped with at the
start of each race.
The five gears are operated by
tapping the Left and Right buttons on the
top of the controller, Left for shifting
down and Right to move up.
The winner is the first person to
complete the set amount of laps. If you
drop below fifth place when you pass the
finish line your game is over.
== oeJam and Earl are two of the
(| funkiest aliens to ever appear from
the planet Funkotron but boy, have they
had a bogus time of late.
They were tripping across the Super
Novas of their home galaxy when they
came across a small problem. Well, a
large planet actually!
Earl decided to drive _ straight
towards this huge lump of rock and now
their ship has been smashed to pieces.
There is a chance that the hip duo can
salvage the wreckage, but they must
find the parts first!
ToeJam & Earl is a game for either
one or two players. ToeJam is the three-
legged Funkotron while Earl is the
overweight alien.
They will readily tell you their story,
but that takes time and to be frank you
don’t have much of that on your hands.
To put it simply, you must guide the pair
around a plethora of changing
landscapes in search of the precious
ship’s parts.
You are blessed with three lives,
each divided into an energy bar. Power
is lost when you come into contact with
the strange beings, namely Earthlings,
that roam the intricate stages.
You can fight back, but to do this you
must first find the weapon with which to
do so. This is either a slingshot or a
supply of tomatoes which you can lob at
the bogus dudes.
~ Earl is jammin’ with his super Hi-
tops, but wait a minute. Visit that
wizard over there and he'll top up
your energy for a mere buck
The weaponry is found, along with a
selection of other gear, in presents
which can be picked up by walking over
them. Because they are wrapped you do
not know what goodies you will find
inside until you open them.
Items range from a pair of rocket
skates which, when worn, propel
ToeJam or Earl around the screen at
high speed, to an inflatable replica of
one of the duo which is used to decoy
the Earthlings away.
Using the D-pad for movement,
button A will make ToeJam and Earl
sneak along along on tip-toe so may

enemies, while tapping C
will show a map of the area
already explored.
Pressing B will bring up
the inventory list, detailing
how many presents they are
carrying. A further tap of A
will unwrap the present and
use whatever's inside, either
good or bad.
The ship has been
smashed into 10 pieces, but
not every level hides a part.
At the beginning of each
stage you will be told |
whether you must find a piece.
If that is the case you have to
explore the entire level in search of the
precious object (surrounded by flashing
lights and arrows!), then exit via the
elevator. You can also search every
nook and cranny for new and exciting

presents. Not only must you battle you
way through each world to find the part
of your ship, but it is also vital to make
sure your ‘cool’ status is high.
Considering you are two of the
hippest ETs to rocket through space,
you must make sure that you rate higher
than a dufus as you aim to become the
ultimate Funklord!
ToeJam & Earl is an excellently
presented humorous arcade adventure
set in a totally weird galaxy. The game
may seem complex to begin with, but
you soon realise that controlling the
dynamic duo couldn’t be easier.
The game features a unique level
design system which creates a new
world every time you play, therefore
presenting a brand-new challenge in
every game.
This obviously makes the lasting
appeal high, and combined with the slick
graphics, ear shattering sound and the
easy gameplay, the result is an excellent
release from Sega.

of fun to an estimated
one third of the
World's population.
Tecmagik’s Master
System conversion
of the recent 3D
Pacmania Coin-Op
includes
Level Select,
Continue Play
and the new
Bounce feature.
Plus 4 secret

As an apprentice wizard
studying beneath one
of the great sages
there are many
temptations to be
fought. The power of
magic is not to be
trifled with.
Abuse it if
ne quiet evening after the
great wizard has had his
Horlicks and gone to bed, you
quietly and nervously creep into his
study and examine the strange and
mysterious scrawl contained within his
powerful spell book.
Reading the first incantation you
see out loud, you direct whatever it is
you're doing towards a large box of
those fluffy things that people stick on
phones. (Why the wizard has a box of
such items is obviously something only
known to mystics of a higher order).
i
ce
Pazaam! (or some other such magic
type word). The fuzzies instantly come to
life, crawl out of the box and begin to
dash around the house causing havoc!
Oh no! What can you do?
Hearing all the racket, old wizardy
chops comes storming down the rickety
stairs in his nightgown and floppy hat in
a complete rage.
“What the @$*# are you playing at
young man?” cryeth he, “there’s
bloomin ‘orrible little fluffy
cretins crawling about all
(Below) The stomping
battle of the ferocious
fuzzbails commences
over the place!” To this statement of the
obvious all you can muster is a blush
and awry smile...
“Right then, just for that”, he yelled,
“lm going to turn you into a fuzzball and
make you round ‘em all up! That'll
teach you. Ha!
“But just to make things
worse I’m going to make it
seem like you're jumping |
around in a computer platforms”
and ladders game!” Oh no! Not that,
please! Anything but that...
So here you are in the first level,
gently bouncing up and down in a room
filled with some quite vicious looking
fuzzballs. What are you to do?
Jumping around all the different
platforms seems like a good idea, and
you find that if you really strain
yourself you can shoot little sparks
of magic.
Fpazaam!
Nipping up to the first meanie you blast
away and find that he soon turns into a
tiny little ball. Now you can go and stomp
on him to get rid of him for good!
All that’s left to do now is go
through 50 levels of this, stomping on all
the meanies you find and picking up bits
of fruit or cans of drink along the way.
You better watch out though. If you
don’t stomp on the bad guys they'll puff
back out into more vicious and intelligent
meanies which will chase you around
making your life thoroughly difficult.
Fuzzball is set to be the next
release for the C64 and the Amiga from
System 3. You can expect this fuzzy
mayhem to hit your screens in
November and it will be a little cheaper
(Above) A full moon can play havec on your curiosity.

Delender of Rome for
te: X-IT, Games-X,
Recently | have been badgering my
parents about getting an Amiga 500.
After a month of annoyance they have
(sort of) agreed to get me the computer.
Now | want to get the Cartoon Classics
pack and | was wondering...
1. Do | need to buy a 500K upgrade to
extend my memory to 1 Mb or is it
included in the Cartoon Classics pack.
2. Is a joystick included in the package,
and if so what kind is it?
3. Also (don’t think I’m stupid) please
could you describe briefly what
formatting a disk means and (if possible)
how do you do it?
I’ve been reading GX for two weeks
now and already think it’s the cheapest
and most extra special cool mag
available. Oh, by the way, compared to
Amigas, Mega Drives are Lada quality.
Robbie Edmonstone, Jordonhill,
Glasgow.
1. The upgrade is included.
2. No.
3. The disks you buy are not formatied
so that they can be bought for use on
any machine. When a disk is formatted a
certain configuration is created on the
magnetic disk which allows your machine

@ Follow the on-screen instructions.
You'll get a more detailed account of this
in the manual received with the game.
I'm writing to complain about a comment
made in Games-X issue 25.
The article was entitled ‘What
Games Machine?’ The article was fine
until it came to the low-down on Sega’s
Mega Drive and its abundance of
software titles, and quote “with the
increasing number of cartridge rental
places, you may never get tied down |
with a bogie.”
This may seem like an innocent
comment but, the fact of the matter (as
I'm sure you're all quite aware), is that
the rental places are operating their
cartridge hire schemes illegally.
| find it difficult to believe that
Games-X is endorsing such a thing, and
that, in fact, the comment was merely an
accident. But don’t you think it would be
a good idea to set the record straight
with your readers, who | assume are in
the 13-18 age bracket.
Don’t get me wrong, |’m not against
the rental schemes. Personally, | think
that the renting of cartridges is a good
idea. The advantage for the dealer is the
same as renting a video, except a
cartridge cannot be pirated.
The advantage to the customers is
that they can see whether they like the
game before they buy it, and they’ve
also got access to a great deal of
software, which in my opinion is a tad
expensive, and beyond the reach of
many a child’s pocket money.
The problem though, lies with the
manufacturer, be it Nintendo or Sega. At
the moment they are losing out.
OK, so they are huge companies,
with assets probably reaching into the
millions, but they still have to look after
many smaller companies/ programming
teams who get paid on a royalties basis.
Now if a dealer decides on renting
the software, once they have paid off the
initial cost of the cartridge all of the
| profits go to them. This to me is unfair
| andis precisely why Sega is against it.
As of 1st October, any dealers
| caught doing any kind of rental schemes
with Sega’s mechandise will be duly
prosecuted.
Just to bring this argument up to
date, without naming any names, a
certain large chain of video stores, after
having Sega on their backs, have bowed
down to their demands and have begun
to sell instead of rent the software.
Just as a final point, how does
| Sega, and Nintendo as well, deal with
| this sort of problem if indeed there is one
in the US, Japan and the rest of Europe?
J Peterson, Offerton, Cheshire.
OK, it’s a fair cop! We shouldn't have
printed the comment and as such would
| like to put the record straight. It has
always been illegal to hire out Sega
games, but from October ist 1991 a
clamp-down on renial began.
| This is a very controversial subject
| with many people holding very sirong
views. | personally feel that rental is the
best way for someone to decide on
which games to buy.
| agree with Mr Peterson in thinking
that the asking price for software is very
high and it is a good idea to try out a
| game before making a purchase.
Despite my own opinions it does not
detract from the fact that the practice is
| and always has been illegal in Europe,
Japan and the States.
| am a fan of your mag. Ever since it
came to our local shop | have bought a
copy because you give info about games
before any other mag does.
Well to the point, you see | am a
Trekkie (unfortunate person — Doc) and
in last week’s mag there was a piece on
Siar Trek. | would like to ask some
| questions about it.
1. How, when and where will | be notified
of the release date of the Amiga version
of Star Trek?
2. Are the sound effects as good on the
Amiga as they are on the PC? ie Will it
have the ‘SHHKKK’ of the elevator door
| and the ‘DONNG DONNG’ of the
heartbeat noises etc?
__ 3. Roughly how much will it be?
| 4. Why is Games-X the best mag
around?
| Dara Keogh, Galway, Ireland.
1. Spring '92
2. Yes, apart from the voice sim which is
only available when an ad lib card is
present.
3. The price isn’t confirmed as yet.
4, Because | work for it — Doc. Get off my

Caroline Machin is and why she’s so

give me Console Concepis’ full address.
PS Your mag is absolutely marvellous!
Kevin Grealey, West Croydon,
Surrey.
Difficult question this one. Both machines |
come out more or less on a level
pegging. However, because we've had
so much software for the Lynx in the
office recently that has to be the fave
hand held with the GX team — at the
moment that is. However, as soon as the
Game Gear carts arrive who knows
which will come out on top.
